A Shooter S Moon

This is the continuation of Jim Coleman's inner battle with his morals to decide what is right and wrong. Jim had spent most of his teen years in parochial schools, and he can't get out of his mind what the nuns taught him. The worst commandment to break is "Thou Shall Not Kill." He has been sent on "temporary duty" to a top secret unit of the CIA, which only the most powerful and influential men in Washington know about. Jim has been designated as the number one assassin, and this takes him to the most difficult assignments in Southeast Asia. As his unit progresses, each mission becomes more difficult and dangerous with Jim, and his unit of five is in North Vietnam more than most. As time comes closer to the United States getting into the war, Jim's unit, along with all the other units, is assigned to rescue to down pilots on the border of North Vietnam and China. This mission, as dangerous as it is, could be the end of all the assassins assigned to the CIA.

How can someone she's worshipped her entire life be just as helpless to save her brother as she is?

In Shooting at the Moon, Roger Warner chronicles a covert operation that used Hmong villagers as guerrilla fighters against the North during the Vietnamese War. Thought to be an expendable resource by Central Intelligence Agency strategists, the Hmong died by the thousands fighting the North Vietnamese. Those who survived were abandoned to their fate when the United States pulled out of the war. Warner's history is the moving and tragic story of how America's 'secret war' devastated its own allies in Southeast Asia.
